These patents were awarded between 2006 and 2012, and cover technology implemented in the most recent 802.11n and 802.11ac Wi-Fi standards. As MacRumors reports, a number of iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch devices incorporate this technology.

The lawsuit also names Apple supplier Broadcom, who is one of Apple's main suppliers of Wi-Fi chips. The suit seeks a jury trial against Apple and Broadcom, as well as a court order to prevent Apple from selling the devices in the US, and damages for the infringed patents. The university could very well win: Last year Apple was ordered to pay damages for infringing a patent owned by the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
